Great Location

Excellent location for doing many tourist things in Edinburgh. The sound of announcements from the train station we initially a bit put offing but they ceased after 8 in the evening and didn’t start till 7 in the morning. The heating system was a bit of a struggle for a North Anerican but the front of house folk walked me throgh it.

The studio was exactly as shown on the website. I was on level -3 Room1. Normal wear on the unit. But nothing to complain about. The one thing to note is to climb into the bathtub, the wall is much higher than average. Daily housekeeping, toiletries, coffee,tea,milk etc was provided. Should be noted that there is no safe in the room.
Note the height to climb into the bathtub

What a peaceful stay! Princes street suites was a relaxing place to go, even in the busy atmosphere! Adjacent to literally everything. 5 minute walk from new town, 5 minutes to old town and the royal mile, 15 minute walk to the Holyrood Palace and Arthur’s seat, adjacent to parks, restaurants, and 3 minutes away walking from an incredible monument on a hill. A bus stop is right outside the door too!

Pleasant stay but needs some improvement

Good location for us as visiting family. The beds are standard double size so a bit on the small size. Also would prefer a dedicated shower to a bath with a shower in it. The bath sides were also really high to get in and out of. Breakfast hamper was a nice and worthwhile touch.

Very good value and very close to shopping and tons of restaurants. It’s a short .5 mile walk to the Royal Mile and Holyrood. The Castle is less than a mile and is all easily walkable. (Weather dependent haha) the staff is always available. We would absolutely stay here again. The rooftop terrace is very cool too. They provide salt and pepper but you’ll need your own oils and other cooking items. (They provide dishes, pans and silverware. There is a dishwasher in unit but it’s a free shared laundry and they will provide soaps) Overall we felt it was a great deal.

Great apartments

The apartment was spacious, well equiped and comfortable. There was a problem with the toilet but they fixed it while we were out (about an hour). The rooftop terrace is a hidden gem with views across the city, a beautiful soace to relax in. There is an additional security deposit taken at check in but it is refunded pretty quickly aftet check out.
